Cam Newton throwing for first time since shoulder surgery

  • Carolina Panthers QB Cam Newton threw the football for the first time Monday since shoulder surgery. Newton underwent the surgery to repair a partially torn rotator cuff in his throwing shoulder during the offseason. He told panthers.com that “there’s no doubt” he will be “100 percent” for the start of training camp.
  • Newton’s overall PFF grade of 79.5 last season was the worst of his career and ranked 18th among 34 qualifying quarterbacks. This was a huge disappointment after the 2015 season where he ranked second among all quarterbacks with a PFF overall grade of 94.
